Ji Han stopped in front of the door marked “Hojin Group, Vice Chairman’s Office” and took a deep breath.
With a short knock, the door to Min Guk’s office opened.
Vice Chairman Seo Min Guk, who was sitting at his desk signing documents, put down his pen.
“Sit down.”
Min Guk’s steady gaze met Ji Han as he entered the office with a formal greeting.
“I’ll finish the urgent approvals and leave.”
“Take your time. I’ll have a cup of coffee.”
A cup of warm Americano was placed in front of Ji Han, who sat on the sofa.
With a gesture from Ji Han indicating that she could leave, Min Guk’s secretary left after a brief greeting.
For a while, the sound of rustling approval documents being turned ceased.
Before long, Min Guk finished his work and sat down across from Ji Han.
“You met with Vice Chairman Kim Young Min?”
“Yes. As I reported to you in writing earlier, the agreement is valid for three years, and we plan to enter the acquisition and merger process after three years.”
Min Guk nodded as he listened to the concise report.
He recalled the acquisition and merger contract between W Group and Hojin Group, which he had already checked, and put down the cup he had picked up.
“Wouldn’t it be better to merge and acquire right now? Why do we have to wait three years?”
It was a sharp question.
Min Guk’s gaze, with his eyes narrowed and piercing, was fierce as he looked at Ji Han.
However, Ji Han faced him without the slightest hint of intimidation and answered.
“It’s difficult to merge and acquire immediately. There are shareholders from Chairman Yoon’s side who oppose it.”
“…Hmm.”
“Moreover, both sides need the three-year period for legitimacy, including Vice Chairman Kim Young Min. Instead, we’ve promised to receive pre-investment capital.”
The decision to merge had been made in the first place to expand the construction business.
Min Guk stared at Ji Han while rubbing his chin with an unreadable expression.
“It’s not like my daughter-in-law is running away. I’ll receive Yeo Jin’s shares immediately upon marriage.”
“…”
“I plan to invest in Intec with the capital from W Group.”
Ji Han was in charge of the investment project for the construction machinery company, Intec, to expand Hojin’s construction business.
For the first time, a faint smile crossed Min Guk’s previously emotionless face.
“You’re finally worth considering.”
“…Thank you.”
“I’ll report to the chairman myself.”
Unable to overcome his emotions, Ji Han stood up from his seat, bowed his head to Min Guk, and greeted him.
Min Guk returned to his office desk, adjusted his glasses, and asked,
“So you’ve never seen your daughter-in-law since the wedding was canceled? What are you going to do?”
“We plan to hold the wedding again next year. After the shareholders’ meeting, we intend to register our marriage first.”
“It would be best to do so since you’ll be preoccupied.”
Min Guk nodded in agreement, seemingly satisfied with Ji Han’s answer.
Then, as Ji Han got up from his seat, Min Guk casually asked another question.
“So when is the shareholders’ meeting?”
I sat in the studio for the radio broadcast that was supposed to start at 9 a.m.
I looked through the news manuscript in front of me but then put the paper down on the desk.
“I need to check the script, but I can’t concentrate.”
The events from the night before kept circling in my head, making it hard to focus.
In the end, I looked away from the radio news manuscript I had been staring at.
The conversations with Jae Ha that had complicated my mind throughout the night filled my head again.
“We’re currently discussing a new business expansion within Hojin.”
“Seo Ji Han is personally leading a large-scale project.”
After finding out that the project was related to Intec, I couldn’t get it off my mind even after returning home.
I began to organize vaguely remembered events and accidents.
And the dilemma that kept me up all night continued even before the broadcast, as I looked at the organized data.
“They’re proceeding with the project now…?”
My eyes suddenly widened.
“A project personally handled by Seo Ji Han.”
Although my knowledge of management came only from what I had learned in college and from observing my grandfather, who ran a company,
Even as an anchor who had not taken successor classes, I could definitely tell.
‘Intec is the key.’
Since the group had been faltering due to past investments.
If Ji Han acquires Intec, Hojin Group will surely collapse.
And depending on the actions taken, the trigger could be pulled even faster.
‘I feel like I’ve grasped the thread of this revenge…’
I tapped the manuscript with the closed pen tip and picked up my cellphone placed beside it.
After a moment of hesitation, I pressed a familiar number.
“I have a favor to ask.”

The morning schedule went by quickly, thanks to the consecutive radio broadcasts.
I returned to the office after finishing the afternoon radio news.
As soon as I entered, the atmosphere in the office was unusually bustling.
